I became a saint by cultivating demons in a strange world

Chapter 181 The Enthronement Ceremony
After Li Xiao received the mission, he frowned and said to himself.

"Does anyone dare to make trouble at the enthronement ceremony?"

The task requirement is to ensure the smooth progress of the ceremony, which means that there will definitely be problems at the ceremony.

he thought,
"The strange star promotion is actually like a monk breaking through the realm. I'm afraid there will be various disasters..."

He thought of Sun Shouyi, the original owner of the ancient city, who was originally planning to break through to Samsung.

Then there is the guy in Yingzhou who wants to be promoted through Baigui Yakou,

And King Chen and Zhu Polong broke through the four stars, and disasters befell them.

Of course, he is the fault of these guys.

And it was precisely because of his appearance that not only did several people fail to be promoted, but they were all robbed.

Now that this kind of mission has been improved, it shows that it may not be that easy for Xuesui to get promoted to the four-star throne.

"I just don't know what the disaster of Blood Spike will be? It should be impossible for players to come in and cause trouble. After all, there are already player tasks, and the player system never allows players to PK each other. Then there should be other weird BOSS coming. It's causing trouble..."

After clarifying his thoughts, he did not dare to be careless.

After all, he didn't know what level of weirdness was coming.

If the four-star monster comes, I'm afraid there will be another battle.

Li Xiao frowned and thought, "If it's just an ordinary four-star weirdo, if a four-star BOSS comes, I'm afraid the enthronement ceremony will be in danger..."

Zhu Po Long Zhengshu has just been promoted to four stars, but he is so difficult to deal with. If he is a BOSS equivalent to the mid-to-late Nascent Soul, then Li Xiao really has no confidence that he can resist it.

But the enthronement ceremony is the key to Xue Sui's qualification to be promoted to four stars, and it is impossible to give up now.

"Then be prepared. If it doesn't work, take it to the world of cultivating immortals. If you don't believe it, the formation, the Tentacle Princess, my new four-star claws, and the recently learned Dragon Soul Sky-Breaking Sword, can deal with it. There is no four-star BOSS suppressed by the rules..."

The strength of the strange boss is always lower than that of the monks. If you go to the world of immortal cultivation, you will be suppressed by the rules.

This is the reason why he keeps dragging some difficult weirdos to the world of cultivating immortals.

Li Xiao looked at the players.

He guessed that these guys should have received the same hidden mission.

But these guys are too weak to be of much help.

But if they died, it would be regarded as a failure of the enthronement ceremony, so he felt that he should protect these guys.

He said, "Joker, take them out first and wait for the ceremony to start..."

The clown responded and led a few worried people out of the hall.

Li Xiao called Xue Qing in and ordered, "Take these silver-armored elites and patrol the surrounding areas. Be sure to pay attention to all movements during the ceremony. If anyone wants to destroy the ceremony, no matter who it is, they will be killed..."

Xue Qing's expression was stern and he responded.

Xuesui also noticed something was wrong and asked, "Father, what happened?"

Li Xiao said, "There may be troubles during the ceremony, but you don't have to worry. Just concentrate on completing the ceremony. I will take care of everything..."

Xuesui felt relieved and said, "Okay father..."

As long as her father is around, she will feel at ease and there is really nothing to worry about.

Li Xiao thought for a while, then released the corpse puppet Tu Feng and ordered him to patrol in the air. If he encounters anything wrong or wants to destroy the ceremony, he will kill with all his strength.

Then he left the hall and came to a high platform that had been built.

The enthronement ceremony is divided into three steps. The first step is to worship heaven and earth on a high platform.

Then the new king accepted the congratulations and greetings from his subjects.

Finally, it can be announced that the new king has successfully ascended the throne.

Of course, this is because the ancient city was derived from the ancient legends of the Dragon Kingdom, so it has these steps and rules.

If ghosts from other areas want to advance to the four-star king level, there will definitely be different rituals and rules.

Li Xiao looked at the high platform that was almost ready to be used to worship heaven and earth. He waved his hand and a formation flag flew out.

This was because he wanted to arrange a formation around the high platform to deal with the upcoming crisis.

After the formation flag was arranged, he placed each medium-grade spiritual stone into the formation eye.

About an hour later, a set of Yinshatian Ghost Array, which was almost equivalent to the third level of the best, had been set up.

But he was still not satisfied. As soon as his mind moved, he saw nebulae faintly flowing in the sky, forming a whirlpool.

This was because he had prepared in advance. If his opponent was indeed too strong, he would be prepared to ignore the Demonic Tentacle Princess.

At worst, they would break up and he wouldn't want the ancient city anymore. He could just take the blood spike and escape back to the world of cultivating immortals, leave the mess behind, and let his opponents deal with the possible gaze of the Tentacle Princess.

After seeing the nebula vortex, everyone felt awe-struck.

Because with the emergence of the whirlpool, a depressing atmosphere began to spread throughout the ancient city.

Xue Qing muttered, "What on earth is going on? Why do you let that person take things so seriously..."

He knew how strong Li Xiao was, and to be able to make him pay so much attention to him, he could only imagine how serious the crisis that might arise would be.

He cheered up and led the knights in shining armor to prepare for the attack.

Xuesui also felt the oppressive atmosphere, came to Li Xiao's side, and said worriedly, "Father, what happened?"

Li Xiao smiled and said, "It's okay, it's just that my father doesn't want anything to happen to your enthronement ceremony... You have to remember that after the ceremony starts, no matter what accidents happen, you don't care. Your first task is to complete the ceremony and become the new emperor." King, leave everything else to me, do you understand?"

Xuesui nodded, "I know father, I will definitely complete the ceremony and become the new king, please don't worry, father..."

She could see Li Xiao's solemnity and knew what the position of the new king meant.

If the ceremony fails, she may lose her qualifications to become a king forever.

And this is an unacceptable result, because she promised her father that she would become the Crimson Queen.

If you can't even become a king, how can you talk about the throne?

Li Xiao touched her little head and said, "Don't worry, I'll take care of everything..."

Xuesui tilted her head and rubbed it in her big hand, like a kitten. At this moment, she felt really at ease, as at ease as she had ever felt before.

Half a day later, the high platform was completed and everything needed for the ceremony was ready.

This is the result of Juduo's great power. If you wanted to build such a high platform to worship the sky outside, it would probably take at least ten days and a half.

Thus, the ceremony officially began.

Several weirdos acted as sacrifices and began to recite scriptures.

Xue Sui, wearing a blood-red gorgeous royal robe, slowly walked onto the high platform amid the sound of scriptures.

Everyone was watching her figure.

The weirdos looked up, full of awe and longing.

This is a ceremony to become a king. As long as you reach the top, it represents the birth of a new king.

Several players are nervously preparing to deal with possible crises.

They took out the props at the bottom of the box, knowing that this mission might be the critical moment for them to get out.

As long as the ceremony can be successfully completed, they will have completed their hidden mission and can naturally return safely.

If it can't be completed, then of course nothing will happen.

Li Xiao was also prepared, and his spiritual consciousness was released, scanning everything around him.

Then until the blood spike reached the highest point, nothing happened.

Several players breathed a sigh of relief.

Even Li Xiao was a little confused, "Am I overthinking the disaster or something?"

Xue Sui stood at the top of the high platform and began to recite the sacrificial prayers he had prepared.

Her voice resounded throughout the ancient city and even reached the sky.

When you offer sacrifices to heaven, you naturally want heaven to hear you.

At this moment, a blood-red eye suddenly appeared in the sky.

That blood-red eye stared closely at Xue Sui,
Xuesui's whole body froze, unable to move.

Immediately afterwards, a blood-red lightning struck down.

At this moment, a yellow mountain peak appeared in mid-air, blocking the bloody lightning.

But Tu Feng, who had been ambushing in mid-air for a long time, sacrificed the Qianshan Seal.

With a click, the mountain peak was directly split into pieces.

After smashing the mountain peak, several more bloody lightning struck down.

But they were all blocked by a nebula vortex.

Li Xiao snorted coldly, "You are pretending to be a ghost. I thought it was really a catastrophe. Come down here..."

As he spoke, he flew directly towards the giant blood-colored eye, stretched out his hand, and a claw shadow first opened the space, and then a sword light flew in, suddenly appeared in front of the giant eye, and slashed out with a sword.

The giant blood-colored eyes showed a panicked look, and shattered with a pop.

When Li Xiao saw this, he transformed into a big black hand and grabbed it.

However, the big hand caught the air in one fell swoop, but also forced a figure to flee in panic.

But he saw a sword light cut through the void, instantly appeared behind the figure, and cut it in half with one sword.

The figure that split into two parts did not die, but actually ran away in two directions.

Li Xiao snorted coldly, "Can you run away... Get up..."

A black barrier appeared, forming a shield and stopping the blood shadow that was divided into two.

He arranged formations and laid ambushes, but if he still managed to escape, there would be no need to mess around.

After being stopped, the two figures changed directions and came together again.

Only then did everyone see clearly that this was a strange BOSS covered in blood, like blood.

Li Xiao sneered, "I thought it would be a four-star level weirdo, but I didn't expect it was just a three-star BOSS pretending to be magical. It's a shame I made so many preparations..."

After Wei Wei was stopped, he was furious and said in a sharp voice, "You are so brave, you dare to seek the throne privately. This is something that is absolutely not allowed by the Blood Throne..."

Li Xiao raised his eyebrows, "Throne of Blood? What is that?"

Hearing what Weird said, the Blood Throne was actually in charge of Weird's promotion to four stars and obtaining the throne, which made him a little interested.

But then he thought about why these guys didn't appear when King Chen and Zhu Polong were promoted.

Li Xiao said calmly, "Forget it, after I capture you, just use the Food of Memory to search for memories. Why bother thinking..."

He saw the surrounding black curtain suddenly shrinking, pressing towards the strange blood color.

The blood was strange and panicked, and he wanted to turn into a blood shadow and escape, but he couldn't escape.

Li Xiao stretched out his hand to grab it, and the big hand that turned into a black screen held it in his hand.

With his current method strength and the help of the formations arranged in advance, even the top three-star BOSS can be captured easily.

Only the real four-star weirdness would make him feel troublesome.

Li Xiao threw the three-star weird BOSS into the Soul-eating Banner, flew back to the high platform, and said, "It's okay, continue..."

When the bloody giant eye shattered, Xue Sui had already regained his mobility.

She was still frightened, "Father, what is that giant bloody eye? When it appeared, I felt an unprecedented oppression..."

Li Xiao said, "I will investigate it later. Now you first complete the ceremony and the new king's enthronement ceremony. Remember, no matter what happens, don't worry about it. Your task is to complete the ceremony..."

Fortunately, the interruption of the heaven-sacrifice ceremony was short-lived, and Xue Sui did not step down from the high platform, otherwise he might have failed.

Xue Sui nodded in agreement, and then began the ritual of offering sacrifices to the sky.

Several players were stunned. They didn't expect the crisis to be resolved so easily.

Originally, they thought there would be a hard fight, but the weirdness around the Crimson Queen solved the problem without them having to take action.

Li Xiao hid his identity and seemed to them to be the strange guard beside the queen.

Several people looked at each other and felt lucky.

Because after the giant blood-red eye appeared, the aura emanating from it and the terrifying blood-colored lightning were simply not something they could handle.Even if they don't take action, their fate will probably not be good after the ceremony fails.

At this time, the queen continued to start the ceremony.

Several people looked around nervously, fearing that another accident would happen.

Li Xiao looked indifferent, because he knew that there was a high probability that no four-star BOSS would come, so he naturally relaxed.

As for the three-star BOSS, he hopes to have a few more, or even ordinary four-star weirdos, there is no problem in getting one or two.

This time the heaven-sacrifice ceremony went smoothly.

When Xue Sui completed the ritual of offering sacrifices to the sky, some figures suddenly appeared faintly in the sky.

Li Xiao's heart trembled, thinking that another accident had occurred.

But others didn't see anything, including Xue Sui.

And there was no dangerous smell.

Li Xiao frowned slightly and released his consciousness, but he didn't sense anything.

Perhaps it was because they were too far away, or those figures were not actually among the ghosts.

He suddenly saw that one of those figures was somewhat familiar.

If you look closely, you will see that the twisted figure in the huge dim sun is the shadow of Tentacle Princess.

Li Xiao thoughtfully said, "It seems that there are not many existences at the same level as the Tentacle Princess. At this time, these shadows are looming. I am afraid it is not that they are really looking at this place, but it is similar to when a monk breaks through a great realm. There will be a kind of strange phenomenon in the world... Others cannot see it, probably because they are not strong enough, or they have not touched the strange rules..."

At this time, he not only vaguely saw those figures, but also saw something inexplicable, landing on Xue Sui.

"Does this mean that Blood Spike has been officially recognized?"

This reminded him of the strange origins he had acquired.

If you want to be promoted to four stars, you must either get an opportunity and be recognized by the rules, and then your origin will naturally fall.

But if there is no chance, then one can only use strange origins to force promotion, just like the Shadow Earl.

But privately searching for and buying the source of the weirdness was taboo for the weird, so the Shadow Earl suffered a disaster.

At this time, Li Xiao saw a strange phenomenon and the origin came. Not only did he figure out some problems, but he also realized something from it.

After all, he has refined three points of strange origin, and has an understanding of the strange rules.

But now, this realization is even more profound.

This will be more convenient for him when he manifests the Tentacle Princess or uses other weird abilities.

In other words, as long as he fully understands these, his weird ways will truly reach four stars.

This is completely different from obtaining four-star abilities through the player system.

The abilities obtained from system rewards are like the skills of game characters.

As for the weird abilities gained through perception, even if he is not a programmer who can create skills, he is at least a GM.

Li Xiao's goal is naturally to become a person who creates the rules of the game, not a character in the game.

Whether he is in the strange world or the world of cultivating immortals, this is his ultimate goal.

At this time, the looming vision in the sky disappeared, and Li Xiao came back to his senses.

Xue Sui walked down the high platform and said excitedly, "Father, the ceremony of worshiping the heaven is completed. I feel something different..."

Although she didn't see those figures, she felt that there were changes in her body, and she had some inheritance that she didn't have before.

This is proof that she has won the title of new king.

Li Xiao smiled and said, "Very good, the most critical part has been completed. The next steps are just a formality..."

The second step in the enthronement ceremony is for the subjects to pay homage.

Xue Sui arrived on top of the palace tower, and below, thousands of strange things had gathered.

These weirdos are the residents of the ancient city.

Under the leadership of Xue Qing, Joker and others, many weirdos began to worship the high-ranking Blood Spike.

"All the subjects of the Crimson Kingdom, pay their respects to the new king..."

Several players also followed the pilgrimage in ignorance.

Only Li Xiao stood aside, scanning with his consciousness to prevent accidents.

But it is obvious that worshiping the heaven is the key to ascending the throne. As long as the ceremony of worshiping the heaven is completed, there will be no disaster.

After the worship, Xue Sui stood on the high platform and said loudly, "I declare that the Crimson Kingdom is established. From now on, I will be the Crimson King..."

"The Crimson King, the Crimson King..."

The subjects cheered wildly.

At this moment, the enthronement ceremony was officially completed.

Several players and Li Xiao received notifications that the mission was completed.

Several players looked at the rewards they received in surprise.

This is a three-star hidden mission. The trick coins alone are worth [-]. If you are lucky, you can also get three-star props.

For a few players who can barely pass the ordinary three-star ghost game, this is simply a gift package from heaven.

The key is that a few people did not contribute at all and only participated in the enthronement ceremony, and the task was completed.

Li Xiao no longer cares about the strange coins, but it is because he took action to prevent the ceremony from being destroyed and captured the strange BOSS, so he got a piece of ability fragment.

He smiled slightly, "Ability fragments, that's not bad..."

Originally, he was planning to acquire a few ability fragments to upgrade the Eye of Death Curse to four stars, which was just right.

After several players checked their harvest, they were surprised to find that they had been able to escape ghosts.

This is because at this time, the ghosts of the Crimson Country are completely under the control of Xuesui.

And the hidden mission they completed was the mission of the Crimson Kingdom.

On the contrary, the mission to explore the ancient city that I received earlier was actually cancelled.

After receiving the prompt, several people did not hesitate and directly chose to quit Guixiao.

They have wanted to run away for a long time, and if they don't run now, how long will it take?

Li Xiao naturally wouldn't care about them.

The reason why these people were called in was because they needed recognition from external forces in order to complete the ceremony.

Letting them complete the task easily can be regarded as a reward for them.

After the ceremony was completed, the strangeness that had gathered dissipated.

Most of these weirdos are low-star weirdos that look like normal residents, but are actually more like NPCs.

In the palace hall, Xue Suigao sat on the throne.

In addition to Xue Qing and Joker, there are a dozen more conscious weirdos below.

These weirdos are officials promoted by Xue Sui.

Since he is the Crimson King, he must have more subordinates.

After being awarded the official title, Xuesui sent everyone out.

She was immediately discouraged, "Father, being a king is so tiring. Xuesui doesn't like it..."

Li Xiao smiled and said, "I just asked you to make the Crimson Kingdom as decent as possible, and I didn't ask you to really make it like the ancient dynasty. Let you inherit the throne. The main thing is to let you get promoted to four stars." Qualifications, as for how you want to manage your kingdom, that’s up to you..."

Xuesui's eyes lit up, "Really? Then I can play however I want?"

Li Xiao said, "Of course, but your main task is to be promoted to four stars. No matter how you play, just don't delay your promotion..."

Xuesui smiled and said, "Okay, I know, I will definitely be promoted to four stars as soon as possible..."

She suddenly pouted again, "Didn't my father originally say that he would take me out to play as long as I was promoted to three stars? But now he wants me to be promoted to four stars..."

Li Xiao touched her little head, "Isn't it true that the plan didn't change quickly? Who would have thought that you would get the opportunity to become the new king so quickly. After being promoted to the new king, you should have obtained many inheritances. These inheritances are still It’s best to absorb and comprehend it as soon as possible, otherwise over time, you may lose your spirituality and the effect will be greatly reduced, so I think I should wait until you are promoted to four stars before taking you out to play..."

He sensed those strange phenomena and dropped the source of strangeness on Xue Sui.

That's why he asked Xuesui to absorb the inheritance as soon as possible and not waste the opportunity.

Although Xuesui complained, he obeyed obediently.

Li Xiao said, "Okay, so many things happened today, thank you for your hard work. You can go and have fun, and just absorb the inheritance tomorrow... I'll see what happened to the guy who came to cause trouble..."

Xue Sui cheered and ran out of the palace.

Li Xiao was in a secret room in the palace, preparing to brew the strange blood.

That guy looked like a skinned woman, covered in blood and very scary.

When Li Xiao saw it, he thought of an old friend.

That was the skinned girl Luo Xue who was tricked by him in the Jijian Hotel.

The blood egg that hatched the blood spike was the exquisite two-star item he obtained after refining Luo Xue.

Thinking of this, Li Xiao vaguely felt that the guy who came to his door might have something to do with the skinned woman Luo Xue.

With a thought in his mind, he traveled back to the world of cultivating immortals.

In fact, in the weird world, you can also activate the food of memory on it.

But Li Xiao was afraid that the guy wouldn't be able to withstand the torment and would die.

If he died in a strange world, then Li Xiao wouldn't be able to get the Heavenly Daoyun.

After traveling back to the world of cultivating immortals, Li Xiao didn't waste any time and directly started to activate the Food of Memory on him.

An hour later, the strange blood disappeared into flying ashes.

In order to search his memory as much as possible, Li Xiao showed no mercy.

Searching for weird memories is similar to searching for souls. If the weird resistance is serious, the soul will definitely be scattered.

The blood-colored strange BOSS was killed by his soul search. Although his resources were wasted, there was no shortage of Dao Yun from the sky.

Li Xiao frowned slightly as he recalled the searched memories.
"The Throne of Blood in that guy's mouth is a huge ghost that rules many blood monsters. And the big BOSS of that place, called the Blood King, is actually a five-star high-level king-level monster. That's why he sent people to stop it. Xue Sui ascended the throne, but it was because Xue Sui was a creature of blood and skipped it to become the king privately, so there was a possibility of competing with him for the origin of blood..."

In that strange memory, he also learned that the reason why people in the Blood Throne were aware of the existence of Blood Spike was because the skinned woman Luo Xue was originally a member of the Blood Throne.

The blood spike hatched from the dropped blood egg is naturally classified as a member of the Blood Throne, and can also be roughly sensed by those who learn from the Blood King.

This time Blood Spike became the new king, and he did not notify the Blood King at all, which was considered a betrayal.

The Blood King will never allow such betrayal.

Because this new king who is not under its control, even if it is still very weak, may threaten its status in the future.

Fortunately, the four-star and five-star ghost monsters are not open yet, so it can't come in person, and it can't send four-star monsters to come, so it sent a three-star top BOSS to prevent Blood Spike from becoming the king.

In its opinion, a three-star top BOSS is enough to deal with that little guy who was so lucky that he got a chance to be promoted.

In fact, its induction is correct. Blood Spike is indeed weak, and a three-star top BOSS can kill it instantly.

I can't bear the thought that there is someone behind it.

The Blood King never imagined that there would be an extraordinary living player like Li Xiao behind him.

So the men it sent to bring disaster directly killed people.

Li Xiao figured out the cause and effect and thought, "It seems that Xue Sui should be more careful in the future. If he is targeted by those weird things in the Blood Throne, he may be in trouble in the future. Fortunately, the four-star ghost monster has not opened yet. Otherwise, I’m afraid the one coming today is the four-star BOSS…”

"Blood Spike's promotion to four stars will not happen in a short period of time. It will take at least several years. If I am not here, Xue Qing alone may not be able to deal with those weird bosses sent by the Blood Throne to cause trouble..."

"But I can't stay in the weird world for a long time. After all, the weird world cannot use Tao Yun to enter the state of enlightenment. And if I want to improve my strength as soon as possible, I must enter the state of enlightenment..."

"It seems like we really need to go to the ruins of the Yin Demon Sect as soon as possible to get the Yin Evil Breathing Soil and refine the clone..."

Whether it is to better follow the path of Shinto, or to protect his good daughter Xue Sui and let her be promoted to four stars smoothly, the use of clones is indispensable.

So for him, refining the clone is indeed a matter of urgency.
